Key Points

The central aim is to compare the effectiveness of frailty tools MRP and FI in predicting outcomes in myeloma patients.
Included NDMM patients for frailty assessment using MRP and FI.
Analyzed correlation between frailty tools and clinical outcomes like overall survival and progression-free survival.
Both MRP and FI were found to significantly correlate with overall survival and progression-free survival.
Differences exist in how each tool stratifies infection risk among patients.

Implication

Study evaluates frailty tools predicting survival and infection risk in myeloma patients, suggesting distinct implications for care.

Abstract

Both MRP and FI are effective frailty assessment tools in NDMM patients. They significantly correlate with OS, PFS.
